What reading level is The Protector : a Vindication book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Charles at this time was conniving at Montrose, who was spreading desolation throughout Scotland ; and the young king hoped by his means to recover a throne without having to take upon himself any embarrassing engagement. But when the marquis was defeated, he determined to surrender to the Scottish parliament. One circumstance had nearly caused his ruin. Among Montrose's papers was found a commission from the king, giving him authority to levy troops and subdue the country by force of arms. The... indignant parliament immediately recalled their commissioners from Holland ; but the individual to whom the order was ad- dressed treacherously concealed the document from his col- leagues, and by showing it to none but the prince, gave him to understand that he could no longer safely temporize.
Charles being thus convinced hurried on board, and set sail for Scotland, attended by a train of unprincipled men. The most serious thinkers in the nation saw that they could expect little else from him than duplicity, treachery, and licentiousness.
